Everyone knows that cycling is a fun, healthy and economical means of travel around the neighborhood.

The advantages of bicycles mainly are as follows：each commuter can drive it directly where they have to go without changing stations or modes;bicycles are much more maneuverable in city mazes, and can take to the sideways to avoid grid lock, can land on any rack, railing or parking meter right outside the place of business, and can always be carried into a building for additional parking or security;Bicycling is also good for our environment，bicycles are 100% pollution free; cycling is good for our health; besides,Bicycle riding is the least expensive way of traveling apart from walking.

Although there are so many advantages，it also has its own limitations： it is unsuitable for long journey;most bikes dont have a roof in case of rain; we cant bring our family with us, unless they have bikes of their own，etc.

导语：人类正试图猎取野生动物以获取更大的利润，下面是yuwenmi小编为大家整理的优秀作文，欢迎阅读与借鉴，谢谢!

As is often read in the newspaper reports, wild life especially the rare species is threatened with extinction. Human beings are making attempts to hunt wild animals for a big profit., which, of course, results in a sharp decrease in the number of animals. So it is high time for us to take quick action to protect them. First of all, its quite necessary for every citizen to realize the importance of animal protection. Only by knowing its importance can people develop a sense of responsibility. People will surely take it for granted to have the duty to prevent any killing of wild animals. So a national publicity campaign should be launched, thus giving animals a good living environment. In addition, the government should pass some laws to forbid any hunting of rare animals. We dont expect anything harmful to wild life to happen again.

If everyone is involved in the protection of wild life, were sure man will be a good friend of animals rather than their enemy.

【参考译文】

正如报纸上经常看到的那样，野生生物特别是稀有物种面临灭绝的危险。人类正试图猎取野生动物以获取更大的利润，当然，这会导致动物数量急剧减少。所以现在是我们采取行动保护他们的时候了。首先，每个公民意识到保护动物的重要性是很有必要的。只有认识到它的重要性，人们才能产生责任感。人们一定会想当然地认为有责任阻止野生动物的捕杀。开展全国性宣传活动，为动物创造良好的生存环境。此外，政府应该通过一些法律，禁止猎杀珍稀动物。我们不希望发生任何对野生动物有害的事情再次发生。

如果每个人都参与野生动物的保护，我们相信人类将是动物的好朋友，而不是敌人。

Currently, some cities are considering a food ban on subways, which has sparked heated discussion. Some people say food should be banned because of the trash and rats they attract. And, garbage from discarded food can cause track fires. Beyond sanitary and mechanical concerns, food can also cause fights, as was discovered last week by one passenger who criticized a woman eating steamed stuffed bun on the subway.

However, some others are opposed to the idea. They argue that people like eating in the train in the morning because they dont have enough time to eat at their houses or restaurants. Sometimes that may be the only time or meal a transit rider may be able to eat especially when traveling long distances. Besides, there are people, for example diabetics, who do require food at various times to maintain blood-sugar levels.

Personally, Im against the ban because of the huge inconvenience it would cause to commuters, and the expense involved in enforcing it. Still, I believe we should have a little common courtesy. I think we all have responsibility to try to treat our subway system and fellow riders with respect, and that extends to food as well.

The cartoon vividly reveals the phenomenon of air pollution or the decline of air quality. What exactly contribute to this phenomenon? Possible reasons can be listed as follows: firstly, vehicle exhaust gases could be one of the most leading causes. With the improvement of economy and peoples living standard, urban inhabitants in mounting numbers own their private cars. More automobiles will inevitably generate more exhaust gases. Additionally, household appliances widely used in cities also release a great mount of carbon dioxide gases, which further intensifies air pollution. Last but not least, many factories around the cities emit large quantities of untreated poisonous gases, which should also be responsible for the decline of air quality.

Definitely, air pollution will exert a detrimental impact on many aspects of peoples life. For example, many diseases such as cough, skin problem and lang cancer are caused by it. Perhaps it is high time that we should adopt some measures to solve the problem of air pollution.

参考译文：

此图生动地揭示了空气污染和空气质量下降的现象。到底是什么导致了这个现象?可能的理由罗列如下：首先，机动车的尾气排放是最主要的原因之一。随着经济的发展和人们生活水平的提高，越来越多的城市居民都拥有了自己的汽车，而更多地汽车势必带来大量的尾气排放。其次，城市里广泛使用的家用电器排放了大量的二氧化碳，这也进一步加剧了空气污染。最后，城市周边的很多的工厂，也每天向空气中排放大量的未经处理的有毒气体,这也导致了空气质量的下降。

Body language is used by people for sending messages to one another. It is very useful because it can help you make yourself easily understood. When you are talking with others,you are not just using words, but also using expressions and gestures. For example, waving ones hand is to say "Good-bye." A smile and handshake show welcome, and clapping hands means congratulations. Nodding the head means agreement, but shaking the head means disagreement. The gestures are accepted both by Chinese and foreigners as having the same meanings.

Different countries have different body language. For example, men in Russia, France and Arab countries kiss each other when they meet, but men in China or Australia shake hands instead of kissing. People in Puerto Rio like touching each other, but people from English speaking countries do not touth each other. If you touch an English person, you should say "Sorry. People in Arab countries like standing close to one another when they are talking, but English people must keep a distance away when they are talking. In some Asian countries, you must not touch the head of another person. In Arab countries, you eat using the fingers of your right land;the left hand is not used at all. In parts of Asia you must not sit with your feet pointing at another person.

When you use a foreign language, it is very important to know the meanings of gestures and movements in the foreign country. Following the customs will help you communicate with people and make your stay there much more pleasant and comfortable.

青少年很喜欢玩电脑游戏，一些人甚至旷课，他们在街上到处晃荡，去到网吧里面，沉浸在电脑游戏里面。我们都知道，网吧对于青少年来说不是一个该去的好地方。第一，网吧里面有形形色色的人。据报道，很多事故发生在网吧里面，一些人彼此间打架，然后砍人，甚至有人死掉。这是多么危险啊。第二，青少年相对比较天真，他们可能会在网吧里面收到坏人的诱导，也有可能被坏人绑架到别的地方，永远不能再回家。网吧对于青少年来说不是一个安全的地方，所以他们应该学着保护自己，远离网吧。

人因为有了希望，才能获得勇气和重拾信心；人因为有了希望，才能得到坚强和找到方向；人正因为有了希望，才能在逆境中找到出路，以脱离困窘，迈向成功。

希望是挂在天际的启明星，遥望明星，让光明永照，让希望长明 ，让追求光明的决心永不懈怠；希望是充满心愿的蜡烛，点燃蜡烛，把火种保留，让希望永存，让挑战命运的信念永不熄灭；希望是没在黑暗的火把，举起火把，当未来灿烂，让希望辉煌，让走向胜利的理想不再渺茫。

封在蛹里的蚕蛾，因为对自由的希望，才能破蛹而出，拥抱天空，翩翩起舞；埋在土里的种子，因为对光明的希望，才能破土而生，拥抱阳光，生长发芽；藏在云里的太阳，因为对万物的希望，才能穿过云层，拥抱大地，晴空万里；陷在绝境里的人们，因为对未来的希望，才能走出绝境，拥抱解放，和谐美好。

希望不是不切实际的奢望，不是迫不及待的盼望，也不是毫无意义的愿望，更不是望而不及的期望。希望，是努力的基础，是梦想的升华，他它以冷静和努力为前提，以理想和追求为方向。希望激励人们奋发向上，而不是坐以待毙；希望鞭策人们勇往直前，而不是止步不前；希望教育人们沉着稳定，而不是猖狂卤莽；希望带领人们走近理想，而不是更加堕落。

希望能使曾经犯错的人们浪子回头，重新做人；希望能使曾经堕落的人们摆脱过去，展望未来；希望能使曾经迷茫的人们清醒头脑，认清世界；希望能使曾经自卑的人们振奋精神，重放光芒；希望能使人们获得进步，不断努力；希望能使人们所向披靡，无人能敌！

让我们行动起来，跟着希望奔跑，千层险，万重难，所向无敌，不在话下；让我们行动起来，跟着希望奔跑，杀千军，斩万马，不达目的，决不停下！

[以希望话题为主的作文

About two weeks from now, college students will begin to enjoy their long summer holidays. Many are looking for odd jobs, of which tutoring is almost the most popular one.

These students say, by doing pan-time jobs, they can not only make some money for next terms tuition, but also enrich their holidays. They prefer to be tutors because this has more to do with what they have learned in class.

As a student, I myself have also been a tutor. But I didnt wait in line until I was chosen. I put up an advertisement with my school scripts attached. So, my suggestion to my fellow students is: be a tutor only when you are good at your courses.

清晨，我背着书包向学校走去，由于闹钟的损坏，我起晚了，等我到达学校，已经7：00了。 In the early morning, I walked to the school with a schoolbag. Due to the damage of the alarm clock, I got up late, and when I arrived at the school, it was 7:00.

教师内并没有多少人，也没有平时的热闹，几个同学聚在一起叙旧。昨天报道时老师没有留作业，所以补作业的同学很少，要有也是补寒假作业的。放下书包后，我独自一人出去吃早饭，超市里满是买包书纸、文具的学生，不时有几个高年级的的学生进进出出。我拿好东西，回到了学校内。一边吃者早餐，一边看者其他的同学做着各种事情。

7：30了，我们要去参加开学典礼，机械一般地执行着开学典礼的过程：升旗、唱国歌、听讲话、宣誓、唱校歌等事宜。“只要有百分之0.1的希望，就要付出百分之120的努力”，陌生的一句名言钻进我的耳朵，副校长讲述了一位运动员永不言弃的动人故事。听过之后，我禁不住问我自己：“我的希望又会是什么?”

之后，校长的一句“一年之计在于春”又留在了我迷惘的心中，紧接着，平时熟悉的关于希望的名言一句句在心中响起，俗渐渐字显现出来。我不禁想起了姚明，他是美国nba的优秀球星，但他从不放弃，国内许多人曾说他一定会得到“新人奖”，但他并没有得到新人奖，在中国这个永远只记住成功者的国度，他依然被人们记住了，人们总是谈论他过人的球技与高人气。姚明说过，第一年他预计平均得10分，抢5个篮板，结果他平均得11点多分，抢8点多个篮板。姚明以他永不言弃的作风赢得希望。

回过神来，我摇摇头，回到了教室。

其实，我已经知道——希望就是自己的明天。

Furthermore, if we meet some emergency, we must call for help from the police or our teachers.

As it is known, when we are in high school, we all have a constant goal that is to get the entrance to college, and hard work is out of question for the following. So we gain the notice to college finally which we often dream of in the nights, which proves a proverb that the god doesnt live up to someone who spends time and efforts, please memorize the sentence for good.

Of course one day we went to college in August or September happily and proudly, but at the same time something happened that it made your heart pounding fiercely, by the way, that is love for many college students. And then they miss the directions and their selves as well for their lives. Next I am to express that I am neutral for falling in love in college, however I have some ideas to illustrate of my own.

Firstly, if you are passers-by, I think we will find a lot about several couples of boyfriends and girlfriends under the dorms or dim corners or in the classes without anybody for close postures, as youngsters, it is normal without asking cause about that. Secondly, even worth mentioning is that many young boys and girls couldnt attend classes and courses instead of traveling to some sceneries and sight places or doing other things only to turn out them loved each other temporarily. Thirdly, especially to most of freshmen, please dont be influenced by the phenomenon that a number of students who finds anther half called by them selves proudly, because I think persons are different from each other, different characters, backgrounds and aims. But there is one point to obey if you actually want to have an attempt the feeling for love at first sight: it is , whenever you and I am, the learning and the work is the most principle rather than love is the first and work second, for we arent children and teenagers anymore, in the future society needs a comprehensive qualifications, profound and extensive knowledge persons, meanwhile in college you are in the state of half foot to society which time is a most important process to exercise and experience before stepping to complicated and complex society, and therefore we are supposed to spend much time in learning instead.

What are mentioned above are only my opinions, believing that others have more perfect for falling in love in college.If you are falling love with somebody in college right now,please do yourself to be a excelent college student.

Should Internet Slang Be Prohibited?

At present， Internet Slang， such as “GG， MM， Xia Mi”， has become popular among the teenagers.

There are different opinions on Internet Slang. Some students think Internet Slang is vivid， fashionable and full of humor and intelligence. Besides， it makes chatting on the Internet quicker.( 万业宝 www.wAnyEbao.CoM )

However， some other students think Internet Slang lacks depth of thought and is too simple. Also， it is hard to understand and not accepted by most people. The words sometimes might make people confused， even resulting in misunderstanding.

Every coin has two sides. In my opinion， living in the Information Age， if we don’t know the Internet Slang， we seem to fall behind the times. It will be OK as long as these terms are used correctly in proper situations.

参考范文：

April 8 Monday Fine

Recently we had a class meeting on the topic of My Chinese Dream. Inspired by President Xi’s Chinese Dream, everyone talked enthusiastically about his understanding of the Chinese Dream. We all believe that this dream will come true in the future. I also talked about my own dream. I have always wanted to be a doctor. Not only can doctors save people’s lives but also they are doing a respectable job. Doctors can also help people to live a better life with their professional knowledge. To realize my dream, I must try to work hard from now on. I must learn as much as I can so that I can get into a good medical college, where I can prepare myself adequately for the job of a doctor. Only in this way can I accomplish my goal.

The Scandinavian countries are much admired all over the world for their enlightened social policies. Sweden has evolved an excellent system for protecting the individual citizen from high-handed or incompetent public officers. The system has worked so well, that it has been adopted in other countries too.

The Swedes were the first to recognize that public officials like civil servants, police officers, health inspectors or tax-collectors can make mistakes or act over-zealously in the belief that they are serving the public. As long ago as 1809, the Swedish Parliament introduced a scheme to safeguard the interest of the individual. A parliamentary committee representing all political parties appoints a person who is suitably qualified to investigate private grievances against the State. The official title of the person is Justiteombudsman, but the Swedes commonly refer to him as the J. O. or Ombudsman. The Ombudsman is not subject to political pressure. He investigates complaints large and small that come to him from all levels of society. As complaints must be made in writing, the Ombudsman receives an average of 1, 200 letters a year. He has eight lawyer assistants to help him and he examines every single letter in detail. There is nothing secretive about the Ombudsmans work, for his correspondence is open to public inspection. If a citizens complaint is justified, the Ombudsman will act on his behalf. The action he takes varies according to the nature of the complaint. He may gently reprimand an official or even suggest to parliament that a law be altered. The following case is a typical example of the Ombudsmans work.

A foreigner living in a Swedish village wrote to the Ombudsman complaining that he had been ill-treated by the police, simply because he was a foreigner. The Ombudsman immediately wrote to the Chief of Police in the district asking him to send a record of the case. There was nothing in tthe record to show that the foreigners complaint was justified and the Chief of Police strongly denied the accusation. It was impossible for the Ombudsman to take action, but when he received a similar complaint from another foreigner in the same village, he immediately sent one of his lawyers to investigate the matter. The lawyer ascertained that a policeman had indeed dealt roughly with foreigners on several occasions. The fact that the policeman was prejudiced against foreigners could not be recorded in the official files. It was only possible for the Ombudsman to find this out by sending one of his representatives to check the facts. The policeman in question was severely reprimanded and was informed that if any further complaints were lodged against him, he would be prosecuted. The Ombudsmans prompt action at once put an end to an unpleasant practice which might have gone unnoticed.
